Plus you need to let your users know that  you wont be delivering the kids
pics. If they files do not serve a business need, they will not be passed
on.

We have a policy that only Word docs and Excel files and pdf's come thru
everything else is blocked.  If they need some other attachment we get
it for them only if it is work related.  This has worked well for us so

You need to find a balance. You cant go blocking file types all wily nilly
if your company has a legitamate use for them.
As an example, back when I started blocking VBS files, I spoke with the VP
of development to make sure this wasn't going to cause a bunch of issues.

You can quarantine the attachments to a mailbox and then deliver if it is
not infected.  BTWword documents can carry vbs type infections, just
check today's security alert at

http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

We currently block about 11 file types. including exe, vbs, dll, com, bat,
bin , msg, drv, pif, eml, scr, swf, sys, cmd.  This is about all we can do
and still operate our business.

Thanks,

RE: Attachment blocking Now what!

2002-02-04 Thread Preston Jeffares

We block a wide variety of attachments that are potentially harmful, but in general 
allow .jpg, .gif, .avi. mpeg, etc so that our file filter doesn't get hit too hard and 
it tends to placate our users a bit.  However, if a user needs a file that is in our 
file filter... we inform them (or the sender) to send the files in a password 
protected zip file.  This allows it to get by the file filter.  BTW... here's our list 
of blocked attachments:

ADE;ADP;ASX;BAS;BAT;BIN;CHM;CMD;COM;CPL;CRT;DLL;EML;EXE;HIV;HLP;HTA;INF;INS;ISP;JS;JSE;JTD;MSC;MSI;MSP;MST;NWS;OCX;OFT;OVL;PCD;PIF;PL;PLX;REG;SCR;SCT;SH;SHB;SHS;SYS;VB;VBE;VBS;VSS;VST;VXD;WSC;WSF;WSH

I agree. It is pretty annoying to have to enter each extension and each
action for each filter for each server by hand. I hope they will spiff
up the interface to make that easier (cut and paste, import from file,
something..).

Once you have the attachments done though... it's great!

certain file type has been renamed, then block it anyhow.
Trend and Antigen are heading up this path.

Ok for those of you that block all attachments including .exe .com .jpg .gif
. How do you deliver legitimate attachments to your folks. I want to
implement this but I would like to hear the process of others. I don't want
to have to spend all day manually delivering somebodies pictures of their
kids to them. thanks in advance.

We make them ZIP them up...or just rename it I guess since Trend ScanMail
doesn't actually check the format, at least not version 3.61.  I'm planning
to upgrade to 3.8 to see if it makes a difference though.  The other
alternative for large files (we have a 15MB limit on our message size) is to
use FTP.

I think many of you are going to find that these old backdoor methods are on
their way out. Many of the newer AV proggies can now determine when a
certain file type has been renamed, then block it anyhow.

This may sound dumb, but what do you mean by cut and paste filtering
options?  Just being able to cut/paste the file extensions you want to block
from another program like ScanMail or what?

RE: Attachment blocking Now what!

2002-02-04 Thread Junk

On our test server we upgraded from ScanMail 3.6 to 3.8 and found that it
had trouble doing the file-blocking.
It would Stop EXE files for example but not VBS.

Haven't had a chance to fully look into it yet, but it's something I would
recomment to check out.
